Description

This unique and architecturally renovated ground-floor apartment has been refurbished and styled with great attention to detail, making optimal use of every square meter. This beautiful residence offers a living area of 224 m², is spread over three full floors, and features a garden of approximately 38 m². The stunning home boasts a tasteful interior, exclusively using high-quality, natural, and luxurious materials from leading brands. Noteworthy features include the exceptional width of the property, the luxurious designer void with a glass balustrade, and the impressively high rear windows that provide extraordinary natural light. Particularly remarkable is how the design connects the void and the tall rear façade, linking the living spaces across two floors and even extending into the garden.

This luxurious, modern home is divided over three spacious levels and includes no fewer than five bedrooms, four bathrooms, four toilets, and an impressive main living floor. Given the generous living area, width, and ceiling height, the level of living comfort can truly be described as superb.

The property is quietly situated on freehold land in the prestigious Oud-Zuid district, within walking distance of the famous Cornelis Schuytstraat, the Vondelpark, and the Museum Quarter.

LAYOUT
Through the private entrance, the marble vestibule—with a wooden step and glass partition door—leads to the magnificent living floor. This bright, through-living space is divided into a sitting area, dining area, and open-plan kitchen that flow seamlessly into one another, creating an airy and spacious feel.

At the front is a charming sitting room featuring an atmospheric gas fireplace set against a robust stone wall, next to which a striking steel-and-wood staircase leads to the upper floor. At the rear, another robust stone wall draws the eye toward the impressive glass façade overlooking the garden.

The spacious, modern kitchen is arranged along two sides and finished with earth-toned, handleless cabinets combined with a dark granito countertop. It is equipped with high-end built-in appliances from Bosch and a Gessi faucet. A true eye-catcher is the black-and-white tiled floor, which is also used as a backsplash. On the living side, a long bar made from a single piece of wood adds a warm, homey touch. From the kitchen, there is access to a small balcony overlooking the private garden—an ideal spot for morning coffee. Adjacent to the kitchen is a full-height built-in cabinet wall offering ample storage space.

Near the entrance, there is also a separate toilet. Apart from the kitchen, this entire floor features high-quality oak wooden flooring.

Via the aforementioned steel-and-wood staircase, you reach the first floor, where the hallway provides access to all rooms. At the front are two well-sized bedrooms connected by a soft-close stained-glass door. The right room features a custom-built loft bed with space for a desk underneath and is currently used as a study. The left room is slightly larger and has French doors opening onto a cozy balcony overlooking Van Breestraat. Both rooms have floor-to-ceiling custom wardrobes.

At the rear is the master bedroom, which is spacious enough for a king-size bed and large wardrobes. The back of the room includes a sitting area, a vanity station, and French doors lopening to view the private garden. The en-suite bathroom features a retro tile floor with a classic Belle Époque pattern inspired by Escher. The walls are finished in white, partly tiled and partly plastered. The bathroom includes a bathtub, walk-in shower with rain and hand shower, a wide olive-colored vanity with double sinks and mirrors, a towel radiator, underfloor heating, and a separate toilet.

The second bathroom is accessible from the hallway and features a Mediterranean tile floor combined with white walls. It includes a bathtub/shower combination, wall-mounted toilet, wooden vanity with natural stone countertop and basin, towel radiator, and underfloor heating. A convenient space behind the door allows for additional storage. Both bathrooms are fitted with Gessi built-in faucets.

Via the striking designer void with glass balustrade, a wooden staircase leads to the basement level. A standout feature here is the impressive bookcase made from antique railway sleeper wood. From the stairs, the garden immediately catches the eye. With two access points, it extends the living space and seamlessly connects indoors and outdoors.

The 38 m² garden is divided into a terrace and a slightly elevated grass area with greenery and gravel at the rear. Adjacent to the garden is a pantry—ideal for outdoor dining—featuring wooden cabinets and a dark natural stone countertop. The entire basement floor is finished with large light-grey tiles matching the terrace.

This level includes a comfortable lounge area or second living room. Opposite, a loft door leads to a compact hallway providing access to a bathroom, a storage closet, and, via a sliding door, an additional room housing a wine fridge and a second refrigerator/freezer.

The bathroom on this level has a wood-look floor and grey walls and includes a steam shower with seating, a wooden vanity with an oval basin and large round mirror, a toilet, and underfloor heating, again with Gessi fixtures. Adjacent is a laundry room with a sink and all necessary connections.

Opposite the laundry room is an additional room, currently used as a sitting/workspace but also suitable as an extra bedroom. A charming detail is the original stained-glass windows visible from the lounge area. At the front is the final room—a pleasant bedroom with natural light and access to an adjoining room, ideal as a walk-in closet or workspace.

This fantastic, high-quality renovated ground-floor home is fully equipped with underfloor heating and HR (high-efficiency) glazing.
